Windy Ridge Autism Supports

06/25/2025

As we close this chapter in our "yellow school", we celebrate the experiences shared within its walls.

Windy Ridge staff and families will certainly miss our inviting "yellow" clinic space. However, we view this transition as a chance to evolve and grow. We will be moving, refining our processes, and reducing our inventory… offering select items for sale (if anyone is interested 😉).

Our office will relocate to Wasa, and home visits will become our new standard.

We offer heartfelt thanks to all who have become a part of our extended family in our cozy space! We appreciate Kevin Arndt and the Anglican Parish of Christ Church for their support over the past two years. Rest assured that our dedication to supporting our families remains strong, even as we navigate these changes.

A new website is presently in development…

This symbolizes acceptance of all types of neurodiversity, sexual preferences, and gender expression. Autistic Pride Day is led by those who are part of the autism spectrum and promotes advocacy for more widespread acceptance.
